	a)	Payment to begin work will not be issued without IRB approval.
	b)	Participate in regularly scheduled assessment meetings and/or teleconferences as requested by the Alzheimer's Association. Failure to participate in these assessments and to demonstrate satisfactory progress may result in withholding of future payments. The first assessment will be held approximately at the six-month mark of your Award by teleconference to review initial progress. Assessment meetings will be held at the midpoint and completion of your Award. The individual grantee is required to attend both assessment meetings via teleconference, unless otherwise informed by the Alzheimer's Association.
	c)	Complete progress and expense reports detailing your progress against milestones and your associated expenditures. These reports will be due before the midpoint assessment meeting and at the completion of your award. When appropriate, additional reports may be requested before other assessment meetings and teleconferences. Templates will be provided to you to facilitate this reporting. These reports will be reviewed by the Alzheimer's Association against the Assessment Criteria and you may receive suggestions, critique, and feedback.
	d)	Participate openly in discussions regarding your Project with the Alzheimer's Association scientific and research staff, and advisors.

Failure to meet milestones, furnish scheduled deliverables, including any reports, satisfactorily meet all Assessment Criteria or comply with this Agreement may serve as one or more bases for termination of funding by the Alzheimer's Association.

If at any time circumstances arise that prohibit completion of the Project on schedule, you are required to notify the Alzheimer's Association immediately. The Alzheimer's Association will consider granting a no-cost extension on a case by case basis. To apply for a no-cost extension, submit a letter detailing the request. The letter should include reasons for delays or changes, associated rationale, a timeline for continuing the work, and an expense report detailing remaining funds.

DATA SHARING

The Alzheimer’s Association is committed to data sharing for Alzheimer’s Association International Research Grant Program grantees. Data sharing is a necessary means to advance Alzheimer research results into systemic knowledge, usable products, and research procedures, leading to the overall improvement of human health.

The Alzheimer’s Association requires the timely release and the sharing of final research data and other research resources generated from Alzheimer’s Association funded research studies be shared and administered in accordance with this policy. Examples included in the “final research data” are the data, samples, physical conditions and other supporting materials created or gathered during the course of the work.

For clinical data, the rights and privacy of people who participate in Alzheimer’s Association – sponsored research must be protected at all times. When applicable, data collected during these studies and shared for broader use should be free of identifiers and variables related to individual subjects.

The Alzheimer’s Association provides the Global Alzheimer’s Association Interactive Network (GAAIN) as a resource to link all data generated as a result of this funding (see below for exemption) to be available for sharing. GAAIN – located at gaain.org - is cloud-based, grid network infrastructure spanning centralized computational facilities in North America and Europe. The Alzheimer’s Association recognizes there may be difficulties, limitations or other potential complications regarding an individual’s or an institution’s ability to comply with the Alzheimer’s Association’s data sharing policy as a result of institutional policies; local, state and federal laws and regulations, including the Privacy Rule; or local IRB regulations. The rights and privacy of people who participate in Alzheimer’s Association – sponsored research must be protected at all times. When data sharing may be limited, applicants should be prepared to explain such limitations to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Initial that you accept the terms stated on this page

Conditions of Award - 18PTC-R- (6/2018)

For non-clinical (i.e. animal related studies testing/ evaluating potential therapeutics in these models), the Alzheimer’s Association expects researchers to submit their data within 12 months of the conclusion of their project to the AlzPED database, hosted by the National Institute on Aging/NIH. To submit data through AlzPED, awardees are expected to establish an account at http://alzped.nia.nih.gov/node/add/alzped-study and provide documentation of their data being submitted to the appropriate tool. AlzPED provides transgenic model and cross-transgenic model information across relevant translational criteria data sets such as therapeutic agents, and targets. AlzPED is designed to feature published and unpublished reports and to help identify the critical data, design elements and methodology missing from studies in order to increase transparent reporting, reproducibility and translatability of animal model efficacy testing studies. Following submission of data to AlzPED, researchers will receive a citable d.o.i (digital object identifier); investigators are expected to include the AlzPED d.o.i. in their final progress report.

In addition, awardees are encouraged to discuss potential impediments to data sharing with their Association contact at the time they negotiate grant agreement to accept the Alzheimer’s Association grant award.

**IMPORTANT NOTE**

Failure to comply with the Alzheimer’s Association Data Sharing Policy will result in ineligibility of the investigator for future funding from the Alzheimer’s Association.

Public Access Policy

The Alzheimer’s Association funds biomedical research related to Alzheimer’s and related dementias. The main output of this research is new knowledge. To ensure this knowledge can be accessed, read, applied, and built upon in fulfillment of our goals, the Alzheimer’s Association expects its researchers to publish their findings in peer-reviewed journals.

In addition, it is a condition of funding from the Alzheimer’s Association that all peer-reviewed articles supported in whole or in part by its grants must be made available in the PubMed Central online archive in accordance with the following conditions:

	·	Authors are to deposit an electronic copy of their final peer-reviewed manuscripts in PubMed Central immediately upon acceptance for journal publication. (http://www.healthra.org/resources.publicaccess.html)

	·	The manuscript is to be made publicly available in PubMed Central no later than 12 months after the official date of journal publication. This requirement applies to all Alzheimer’s Association grants awarded.

PubMed Central is a database of full-text biomedical journal articles available online without a fee. It is hosted by the National Library of Medicine in the National Institutes of Health. Once posted in PubMed Central, results of research become more accessible, prominent, and integrated within the context of other research findings, making it easier for scientists worldwide to pursue Alzheimer’s and related dementia research. Equally important, families, clinicians, patients, educators, funders, and students reap the benefits of information arising from funding by accessing publications on PubMed Central at no charge.

An author must acknowledge the Alzheimer’s Association’s support in every article arising from such funding. The acknowledgement statement must include the applicable Alzheimer’s Association grant number. This will enable the Association to link the published outputs of research to the support it has provided.

Initial that you accept the terms stated on this page

Conditions of Award - 18PTC-R- (6/2018)

All scientific progress reports must include the PMC ID number (PMCnnnnn) to publications in PubMed Central supported by the Alzheimer’s Association.

**IMPORTANT NOTE**

Failure to comply with the Alzheimer’s Association Public Access Policy will result in ineligibility of the investigator for future funding from the Alzheimer’s Association.

NOTIFICATION OF PUBLICATIONS

One electronic copy of manuscripts and meeting abstracts reporting research acknowledging funds from the Alzheimer’s Association must be submitted ELECTRONICALLY at the time of publication. This copy will become part of the official file of the grant and will be provided to the Communications Division to assist in the efforts to further inform the public about the research program of the Association. These submissions must be made electronically using the same system outlined above for report submissions.

The Association will provide publicity assistance when the Principal Investigator notifies the staff prior to the release of findings in any scientific journal or major meeting presentations and will work with the Public Relations Officer of the institution to ensure coordination of efforts. Please contact the Communications Division, Media Relations Department at ###-###-#### as early as possible in the process, for instance as soon as the manuscript is accepted for publication or presentation.

An acknowledgment of support provided by the Association must be included in any responses to or interviews with radio, television or print journalists when an Association funded grant is discussed.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF FUNDING SOURCE

An acknowledgment of support provided by the Alzheimer’s Association must appear in publications of any material whether copyrighted or not, if the data is based on or developed under Association- supported grants. The following wording should be used: This work was supported by an Alzheimer’s Association Part the Cloud RESCUE Grant (18PTC-R-??????).

In addition, an acknowledgement of support provided by the Alzheimer’s Association must appear in presentations of any material, if the data is based on or developed under Association-supported grants.

Whenever the Principal Investigator is informed of sponsorship through the generosity of a donor, the specific grant name should be used. For example, the Alzheimer’s Association/Samuel A. Blank Research Grant.

RIGHT TO AUDIT

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the grantee institution (“Grantee”) shall maintain reasonably full and complete records of the cost and completion of services performed under this Grant Award and the Conditions of Award Agreement (together, “Agreements”). During the term of the funding agreement with the Alzheimer’s Association, and for a period of two years after their termination or completion, the Alzheimer’s Association reserves the right to inquire and/or audit the Grantee’s records as they pertain to the performance of the Agreements at Grantee’s office. Upon fifteen business days written notice from the Alzheimer's Association, Grantee agrees to make available all records for inspection or audit at its offices during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. local time).

RESTRICTIONS ON FUTURE FUNDING ELIGIBILITY

As of the posting of this policy, the Alzheimer’s Association will not accept new research grant applications from investigators who are delinquent in submitting interim/final scientific or interim/final financial reports on current and/or previous grants or are in conflict with the conditions put forth in this document.

This policy will be strictly adhered to, no exceptions.

REQUESTS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIONS

Submit requests for administrative actions electronically through the proposalCENTRAL online system used for Interim and Final report submissions (described above). When the request has been uploaded, please advise Mary Grilli, Post Award Grant Specialist that a request has been filed ( ***@***).

** IMPORTANT NOTE**

ALL letters and reports must be submitted electronically (see instructions above in reporting requirements).

Requests for administrative actions (e.g. re-budgeting, carry-over of unexpended funds, replacement of Principal Investigator, transfer of institution, overlap, extension of award, administrative supplements) must be submitted electronically via letter which has been signed by the Principal Investigator of the application or grant and the responsible, bonded business official of the institution. Any request must be submitted 45 days prior to the desired date of action. Association staff will review draft letters for content and appropriateness prior to submission of the final signed request. The preliminary review does not indicate advance approval of the request, rather the preliminary review will ensure that all necessary information has been included.

Review and approval of requests for administrative actions is the responsibility of the staff of the Alzheimer’s Association.

Re-budgeting

Requests for re-budgeting of more than 10% of the total awarded amount (direct + indirect costs) for that year must be submitted electronically for prior approval to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Requests to re-budget must be clearly explained and justified against the timely achievement of the specific aims of the grant. If possible, re-budgeting requests should be submitted with the interim/non- competing continuation report. If necessary, re-budgeting requests will be accepted mid-grant year.

Initial that you accept the terms stated on this page

Conditions of Award - 18PTC-R- (6/2018)

Carry over of Unexpended Funds

In general, permission to carry forward unexpended balances into future funding years is allowed. For example, a $10,000 unexpended balance at the end of the 02 year, of a three year award, will be carried forward automatically and used to supplement to the $60,000 continuation funding of the 03 year (which would provide the investigator a total of $70,000 for the 03 year).

Replacement of the Principal Investigator

For most programs (exceptions named below), the request to replace a Principal Investigator must be submitted electronically (see instructions above in reporting requirements) by the appropriate faculty member (usually the Department Chair or Dean) and countersigned by the responsible business official of the grantee institution. The letter requesting replacement of the Principal Investigator must contain a curriculum vita of the proposed replacement Principal Investigator. Approval of a replacement Principal Investigator is the responsibility of the Association and subject to review by staff; the Association reserves the right to terminate a grant if replacement Principal Investigator is not approved.

For Strategic Grants (SG) and Zenith, the grantee institution may request the replacement of a Principal Investigator. If the Principal Investigator of a Zenith or Strategic Grant(SG) award leaves research work for some reason, the Alzheimer’s Association reserves the right to terminate the grant and the remaining funds minus non-cancellable obligations/ fees returned to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Transfer of Institution

The Association will review requests to transfer a grant to another organization, if applicable. For a Part the Cloud grant, the Alzheimer’s Association reserves the right to approve the transfer or to terminate the funded grant.

The request to transfer a grant should be submitted electronically at least 60 days in advance of the planned move to ensure Association staff have adequate time to review the request and ask for and receive additional information should it be necessary. You may request a six-month extension to complete work proposed in the grant for time loss during your move to the new institution.

Overlap with other Funded Applications

Investigators must inform the Association of any overlap, or concern about possible overlap, with other non-Alzheimer’s Association grants. Overlap is defined as “two or more grants by the same Principal Investigator which shares at least one specific aim”; in addition, overlap means that the budget line items for each funding mechanism are also shared It is not necessary to provide information about applications that share specific aims with an Association grant. The concern about overlap arises only when an investigator has been notified that he/she will be awarded a grant by another organization and that application, soon to be awarded, shares specific aim(s) with a grant from the Association and has overlap of proposed resources.

Conditions of Award - 18PTC-R- (6/2018)

Extension of Award

An extension of the term of a grant without funds (no-cost extension) or with funds remaining at the end of the grant period (extension with cost) may be approved when requested electronically 45 days prior to the grant expiration. Typically, requests range from six to twelve months however you are allowed a 6 month extension for each year of the award (e.g. a two year award will be eligible for 2 no- cost extensions, up to 6 months each whereas a three year award will be eligible for 3 no-cost extensions, up to 6 months each). The Principal Investigator and responsible business official must countersign the letter requesting the extension, whether the extension is with funds unexpended at the end of the grant period or at no cost. Although requests may not be made for the sole purpose of spending remaining funds, you may expend remaining funds during the no-cost extension period. The duration of the extension and the expected products/accomplishments must be detailed in the letter. An extension of term may only be requested to complete work proposed in the grant.

Absence from work

Awardees must notify the Alzheimer’s Association of any absence from the funded research project longer than 60 days, planned, unplanned or due to illness. In certain extreme cases when the Awardee is unable to communicate with the Association due to illness or accident, the department chairperson and/or authorized personnel from the institution may submit the request on their behalf. The Award is subject to early termination unless the absence has been requested and authorized in advance by the Alzheimer’s Association

A written request should be submitted to Alzheimer’s Association indicating the dates of the leave, the reasons for the request and the Principal Investigator's intention to resume their work on the funding project. The Alzheimer’s Association will review the request and determine the most appropriate course of action.

Change of Names and Addresses

If an investigator moves while an application is under review by the Association, it is necessary to submit electronic notification of the new address and the date of the move by updating the PI profile in proposalCENTRAL. In some instances, great difficulty has been encountered trying to find an investigator to inform him/her of the award of a grant.

If the business official responsible for the grant or application at the institution is changed, the investigator and new business official should update information electronically in the proposalCENTRAL profile as soon as possible.

Prompt online notification through proposalCENTRAL, of changes in names, titles, addresses, phone and fax numbers, email addresses will help to avoid delays in processing any actions or requests.

** IMPORTANT NOTE**

ALL letters and reports must be submitted electronically (see instructions above in reporting requirements).

REEARCH INTEGRITY

Research misconduct by a Grantee receiving Alzheimer Association support is contrary to the interests of Alzheimer Association and the patients and their families it seeks to serve, as well as to the integrity of research, and to the conservation of donor funds. The Parties hereby agree to follow, and Sponsoring Institution shall cause Grantee and Sponsor to follow, the Sponsoring Institution’s policies as they relate to Research Misconduct and confirm that they are at least as rigorous as those followed by the NIH (Public Health Service Policies on Research Misconduct 42 CFR 93).

For the avoidance of doubt, the NIH defines “Research Misconduct” to mean fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism (further defined below) in proposing, performing, or reviewing research, or in reporting research results. Research misconduct does not include honest error or differences of opinion.

	a)	Fabrication: Making up data or results and recording or reporting them.

	b)	Falsification: Manipulating research materials, equipment, or processes, or changing or omitting data or results such that the research is not accurately represented in the research record.

	c)	Plagiarism: The appropriation of another person’s ideas, processes, results or words without giving appropriate credit.

**IMPORTANT NOTE**

Upon completion of projects, the Association encourages grantees to consider submitting an article describing results to Alzheimer’s & Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer’s Association or its two companion open access journals: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions (TRCI) or Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring (DADM.

PATENT POLICY OF THE ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION®

The primary purpose of the Alzheimer's Association (the “Association”) funding scientifically meritorious research is to advance its mission to eliminate Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. The Association recognizes that patentable Inventions (defined below) having public health, scientific, business or commercial application or value may be made in the course of research supported by the Association. It is the desire of the Association that such Inventions will be administered in such a manner that they are brought into public use at the earliest possible time. The Association recognizes that this may be best accomplished through the filing of applications for registration of patents and/or copyrights in such Inventions and the commercial licensing of such Inventions to third parties. Discoveries, works of authorship, or Inventions derived from research performed, supervised or subcontracted for by the grantee institution during the term of the grant will be subject to the Association’s Patent Policy as set forth below:

1.	“Invention” is any discovery, data, material, method, process, device, product, program, software, proprietary know-how or other work of authorship, whether or not patentable or copyrightable, that is created, conceived or discovered in the course of research supported in whole or in part by the Association, or that arises from research supported in whole or part by the Association.

2.	All notices of disclosure of Invention patents must be reported in a timely manner to the Medical & Scientific Relations Division of the Association. Upon the Association’s request, all documentation relating to the filing or assertion of rights shall be provided to the Association. The Association shall agree to maintain the confidentiality of such documentation by executing a confidentiality agreement mutually agreed to by the grantee institution /inventor and the Association. All expenses of the Invention patent process should be borne by the grantee institution or individual awardee.

3.	Unless otherwise indicated or requested by the grantee institution, title to any invention shall reside in the grantee institution.

4.	Distribution of income derived from an Invention shall be according to the policies of the grantee institution, except that the Association shall participate in net income derived from the Invention (unless waived in writing by the Association) to the extent, and at a rate of remuneration, to be determined by mutual agreement between the grantee institution and the Association at the time a patent application is filed. If the grantee institution has no established and applicable patent, intellectual property, or technology transfer policy and procedure for administering Inventions, the Association shall have the sole right to determine the disposition of the Invention rights in a manner consistent with this Patent Policy.

5.	The grantee institution shall not abandon all patents and patent applications without first notifying the Medical & Scientific Relations Division of the Association and to the extent the grantee institution has the legal right to do so giving the Association the opportunity to take title to the Invention and to continue the patent or patent application at its own expense.

6.	The grantee institution shall agree that if it has not taken effective steps, within a reasonable time frame for the research project advancement after a U.S. patent issues on an Invention supported by Association funds and administered by the institution, to bring that invention to the point of practical application, or has not made such Invention available for licensing, the Association shall have the right to request grantee institution terminate the license for lack of diligence, grant title to the Association and to locate and proceed with another licensee.

7.	If any Invention is made with the joint support of the Association and any agency or department of the United States Government, the Association may defer to the patent policy of that agency or department upon written statement by the appropriate agency of government notifying the Association of its position with respect to the Invention in question.

8.	If any Invention is made with the joint support of the Association and some other organization, not an agency or department of the U.S. Government, that organization, the institution, the inventor(s), and the Association will confer to arrive at a mutually satisfactory disposition of the Invention rights.
